Is GPU app 0.20 coming out soon?
If this thing does not begin to work I´m going to change to nVidia cards :(

I think not as long as the ATI cards produce good results and there is not pressure on the servers.

I think the CUDA (nVidia) and ATI_GPU software will have a low priority ATM.

The code hasn't been changed lately so I don't see .20 being released anytime soon.

I agree. The other apps were supposed to be out months ago on the MW_Gpu project. That seems to have been forgot about.

I think what he is asking is will there be an upgrade to the current code that is actually stable on Vista 64. .19f does not seem to work on a number of Vista 64 systems.

My host here is running Vista 64 and is doing well...stock Dell XPS with a 4850 in it...I will check which version of the driver I am using when I get home this evening.

Thanks John, I'm having little luck with it. I'm also running a 4850, Vista 64. and I7 920. I've tried 8.12, 9.2, 9.5, and 9.6. The closest to working right is 9.5 but it has problems also.

There are at least 4 on this thread that are having problems with Vista 64,

Bryan

John, I looked at your tasks and it appears your are running BOINC 6.4.7. Is this correct? I'm running 6.6.31 and that could possibly be the problem. At this point I will try anything.

Bryan

Running 6.4.7 on that rig, and all my MW rigs...

The only ones that don't have it are the ones with the GTX260s in them...and one of those is being swapped out tonight...and changed back to 6.4.7...

According to GPU-Z, I am running 8.12 on that machine...

Thanks John! I changed over to 6.4.7 and it works MUCH better than 6.6.31 but I'm still seeing the system freeze about every 20 minutes. It hangs for about 3 minutes and then continues right where it left off. I think I will reinstall 8.12 again and give that a try. But I'm much closer than before.

Does your mgr. show that all of your units are runninig in "high priority" mode? That is what I'm showing.

Bryan

There is joy in Mudville ... Casey has parked the sucker! Looks like the combination of 6.4.7 and Cat 8.12 is stable. I've been watching for an hour and haven't seen the system hang or produce an error of any type.

I owe you one John. This has been a very frustrating couple of days trying to get this to work right.

Take care,
Bryan

Just installed that older 6.4.7 and testing....

Is there a new version for Catalyst 9.6 soon ?

I tried 8.12 driver on Vista 32, bluescreen...
I tried 9.2, it is ok, but bluescreen too.
In 9.6 there is to much hangs wth Vista but no bluescreen.

So the 8.12, can not labeled "stable".
It is rather stable to run but not 100%

Les, John and I are running Vista 64 and the combination of 6.4.7 and 8.12 works very well on the 64 bit system I have been running for almost 24 hours now and my 4850 is cranking over 3000 credits per hour. There have been NO hangups or errors during that time.

I'm afraid I can't answer your questions about 32 bit Vista. I hope your find a solution, I definitely understand how frustrating it can be!

Bryan

took a while but finally got gpu working on my 4890 and cant believe how fast it is, doing work units in 50 seconds, i left the xml file on default, is there anything i should change in there.

im runnin

vista 64bit
amd 955
hd 4890 1 of

stats here

The figures for your GPU look about twice as fast as my HD4850

hmmmm its not working now keep getting vpu recover its set on 75% usage
i cant use 8.12 as driver doesn't support a 4890
for some reason i cant get rid of 9.6 and put 9.5 on either
shame as it was going well

went back to boinc 6.47 all seems ok now

Couple things to try...
Have you tried add/remove? Boot up in safe mode and try deleting? (Works a lot of the tiem when the other methods don't)

If that doesn't work I'll see what else I think of.
